Tubeless tires. man, why didnt i change earlier??
i ran a 1.5" roofing nail over. stabbed right in. click click click..all the way home. i picked it up somewhere on the trail i think. i started hearing it on the road to home. the click almost drove me nuts.
got home, deflated the tire, yanked out the nail. broke the bead on one side and dried the area, and stuck on of the self sticking patches (the clear ones) on the inside..pumped it up and i am going strong. zero leaks. it has been so dry in CA that the stickers are brutal. goatheads. one month and i only had to top off my rear tire once!! this is a game changer for me.
i carry a tube for a catastrophe. do i need special tool to remove the air stem from the rim???
